A couple steps closer...

So, while we had our 3rd and final home study a few weeks ago…we were just informed our social worker has completed writing it up!! So, basically it’s finalized and officially done! :)

Also, we have put the finishing touches on our profile book! Now, all we have to do is print and send 15-20 copies to our social worker so she can distribute them to agencies for the birth mothers to look at! Basically, this is a book that tells “our story” to birth mothers…really all they have to go off of when picking a family. It took a lot of work and is a bit nerve-racking as it’s all that represents us to them!

Once we get those printed and shipped all we have to do is WAIT! Which, many say, is the hardest part…although I feel it’s a huge relief to have it out of our hands…whatever happens, happens! It’s all in God’s hands and up to the birth mothers to choose us :)

We are SO excited and anxious! We can’t wait to be matched!!

Other than wrapping up the adoption paperwork we have been very busy! We pretty much have everything bought for the nursery (thanks to my wonderful parents for helping with that!) we still have to paint and do a few updates to the room! On top of that…we are hoping to add a little addition onto our house and we have some landscaping jobs (about 5!) already lined up for spring/summer!!! Needless to say we are busy…however, I think it’s a blessing in disguise as it should help time move a little faster while we wait!

Many of you have asked what you can get for our little one…we do plan to have a baby shower once we bring our baby home! There are so many variables that we figured that's our safest bet...we have all the basics to start out :)

Until my next post…
